The A-list celebs of B-town set the red carpet on fire at the opening edition of TOIFA

The Times of India Film Awards 2013 was one of the biggest and most glamorous events of the year, with top Bollywood’s stars in attendance. And the red carpet was without doubt, the place to be – the Canadians went crazy over the Bollywood fashionistas and uber-stylish celebs.

The couple that drew the biggest hoots and whistles was undoubtedly Shahrukh Khan and wife Gauri Khan. SRK nailed the look, though his maroon tuxedo was a bit gaudy. Gauri was exquisitely draped in a red Tarun Tahiliani saree.

Abhishek Bachchan and wife Aishwarya Rai Bachchan chose to show up in ethnic wear – Abhi wore a navy blue Sherwani and Ash was dressed up in a pretty mint green Anarkali dress. Neha Dhupia wore a rather complex Sabyasachi Mukherjee creation which was a bit kitschier for an awards show.

Priyanka Chopra came looking all sexy in an embellished black gown by Arpan Vohra, and Nargis Fakhri turned up looking perfectly ravishing in a strapless Komal Sood gown.

Anushka Sharma looked different and sported a rather adventurous style in a Dior suit, but the front bangs almost spoiled the otherwise flawless look! Ileana D’Cruz too went the wicked way in black and grey Dolce & Gabbana gown, while her partner for the evening Director Prabhu Deva came in dressed all fly in a dapper navy blue suit.

Aditi Rao Hydari wore a strapless, shimmering Gauri and Nainika gown, while Mugdha Godse was spotted in a pretty dark blue Rajat Tangri gown with an embellished back detail.

Well, all in all, it was a rather stylish red carpet event. No untoward fashion incidents or epic style bloopers… phew!
